[Orgmode] Linking Mail ?

2010-04-28 Thread David Frascone
I'd love to link to mail, but I'm using Thunderbird (actually Postbox), and there don't seem to be any easy ways to add links to it. So, I'm actually considering using some emacs mailer, just for the ability to link to mails via imap. 1) Is anyone else doing this? If so, is it worth the trouble?

Selecting I've gotten into the habit of selecting by holding down shift, and using the arrows to highlight the text I want to select. This even works fine in Aquamacs. But, when I'm using orgmode, and I use shift-Up or Down, then it changes the priority . . Anyone else find this irritating? A

Jump - seems really hard to use. C-c C-j. Opens help window with cursor in it, so I have to C-x o to get to Org-goto window. Then, once in the goto window, hitting tab opens the subtree, but pressing a down arrow again goes back to the top. Seems very useless for actually finding anything.
